A machine learning model used by Yale University researchers has identified various elements associated with a higher risk of physician turnover, a disruptive and costly problem in the healthcare industry.
A new study, from the CDC-funded INSPIRE registry, has found that half of the COVID-19 patients and one-quarter of COVID-negative patients, who had acute COVID-19-like symptoms, tested positive, for at least one symptom, three months later.
A study published in the April issue of "Journal of South American Earth Sciences” presents new insights on the tectono-magmatic history of Los Tuxtlas, in comparison to other similar volcanic complexes in the eastern Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt.
Cotton farmers in West Texas could be missing out on increased yields by not applying enough potassium, or K, to their soils, according to recent research.
Some researchers are criticizing publication of scientific findings in the media before the results have been peer reviewed and published in science journals.
A new study shows that full-term infants admitted into neonatal intensive care (NICU) units have an elevated risk of long-term childhood mortality, according to a team of researchers led by Shahar Talisman and Sorina Grisaru Granovsky.
A new study published in the journal Viruses by Open Access MDPI Journals has detailed some of the molecular functions behind the development of severe COVID-19 cases, finding novel chimeric transcripts that fuse to form hybrid genes, which can lead to severe infections.
A new study published in the journal Environmental Communication has found that the terms "carbon emissions" and "carbon pollution" are more effective at communicating the causes and impacts of climate change than the term "greenhouse gas emissions."
A new study published in the journal Nature Communications shows that synthetic production of certain virus vectors could be the key to improving gene therapy.
